THE COMMON ENEMY.

Th6 grfeiLt victories of the Germans are having a two-fold effect. They halve made super-soldiers out of the Germans and have drawn the vengeance of the victims in cities outside of Germany wherever any consider able bumber of Germans live. There have been many manifestations of the mob spirit in the larger European cities since the outbreak of the great war. Unfortunate foreigners of hostile nationality have been the victims primarily selected by the savages of the gutter, but mob violence once well under way ceases to be discriminating. The havoc recently wrought in Moscow during a day and a night of mob control is a striking illustration of the ruthlessness and recklessness of a city mob which is permitted to get beyond control of the authorities.

Enraged, doubtless, by the news of continued Russian reverses in the field the mob began by attacking and racking shops and residences of Austrians and Germans. It nepct turned its attention to Russian citizens of German birth, and even to members of old Russian families unfortunate enough to carry German names. At last they began to loot and destroy without any discrimination whatever. Before the authorities succeeded in regaining con- & trol damage to the extent of $20,000,000 had been done, and only a comparatively small part of the loss had fallen upon Germans and Austrians. fey It is stated that the authorities made jp only perfunctory efforts to check the mob at the outset, when it was believed feyi that Teutons would be the only sufferers. In this instance inefficient public service was properly punished.

STRIKES GOING OUT OF FASHION.

Settlement of the Chicago street car strike in the stand taken by Mayor Thompson recalls the serious strike on Indiana.jnterurbans arid on the Indianapolis traction lines. Because of the uncertain methods of Mayor Lew Shank, which finally forced his resignation," the strike assumed an ugly stage, where both sides were difficult to deal with. It was at this point where Governor Ralston entered to stop the strike. He reached the settlement by first showing both the company and the men that foolishness must cease

and cool commbn sense prevail. Then he offered the services of the public service commission as an arbitration board, thus placing extra duties upon a court with, an already overflowing schedule. It was a compliment to this body of men that both sides were willing to trust all disputes in their hands. Once a month since that time three commissioners hear and decide disputes and thus is removed possibility of strikes and the consequent annoyance to patrons of the interurban and city lines.

GOVERNOR SLATON.

If there is any criticism of Governor Slaton to make it is that he waited too long to commute Leo Frank's sentence. His act was deferred until the night before the day of execution, heightening the dramatic in the case and intensifying the spirit of protest from the crowd. Frank's life was demanded as a sacrifice to mob lust He was tried by the drumhead court of a bloodthirsty rabble, declared guilty of a shocking crime merely because chance found him near the icene of the outrage.

Had Frank had fewer Influential friends, had he been an immigrant without intelligence or the means to organize the wondrous nation wide protest that arose to emphasize the wrong of the Atlanta Jury's decision, it is probable that he would hajve died on the gallows an innocent man—the victim of circumstances, a sacrifice to mob passion. A blot of dishonor would have rested on Georgia and some day the sensible people of that state would have awakened with chagrin to the wrong they had committed in the name of law.

An argument against capital punishment might be read into the Frank incident—a terrific arraignment of a system that permitted an Atlanta mob almost to take the life of a man whose guilt was never proved.

And now the same mob cried out its execrations of the governor who saved Georgia from the crowning shame of hanging the victim of the mob's unreasoning rage. At the moment John M. Slaton is bigger than any mob, bigger than the majority opinion of his own state—if reports of Georgia sentiment are not distorted— too big to countenance the crime of taking a human life which has not been honestly, forfeited to society.

The name of Georgia's governor Is on millions of lips, and, outside his own state, his act of honor will be praised.

THE HABIT OF PERVERSITY.

The solution of some problems seems to offer an everlasting perplexity. The Ir.dian commissioned reports that since liquors were tabooed on the reservations, the Indians have become drug users and the prevalence of the habit actually alarms officials. Also, reports from Russia say that the prohibition of light wines and beers there has been followed by am epidemic of home-made concoctions from materials ranging from potatoes to shellac and to the use of these is attributed the failure of the Russian army.

In a recent editorial in the Baltimore Sun more unique methods of beating the prohibitory statute in Mlaryland are disclosed than are yet on record in any other dry state. The editorial says: .. "In one way or another the thirsty

ones in the dry states, according to the veracious reports, beat the prohibitory statute and obtain their wet rations on regular delivery schedules. In eome places the drug store racket is worked to the high limit. In various Maryland counties that are theoretically dry the gallon-a-month clause opens the way to a supply that meets all emergencies. But some of the dry localities in West Virginia, which is now an all-dry state, are demonstrating in new ways that necessity is the mother of invention. "A Loop Creek man invented a scheme for obtaining his wet goods regularly and systematically that was simply a pipe dream. Which is to say he had arranged for regular shipments of one sewer pipe section, a section that was sized to hold an even gallon of fluid refr'fe"shments, and, which always held the gallon of uplift juice. Another way of getting the forbidden fluids across the West Virginia line has been to send it in patent fire extinguishers. It went in three-gallon lots in these unique carriers. The ten-gal-lon gas drums for soda fountains— they also were utilized for beating the dry law until the express companies got onto the scheme,

The methods just referred to have been tapped they are no longer practicable. But the mother of invention is lying awake of nights thinking up new ways of getting the wet goods across. And when all other methods fail, there is the blind tiger of the hiUs —the moonlight still. Hiere again the mother of invention will be on the Job. With a few coils of lead pipe, an old-fashioned dinner pot and a gasoline batrel, she can do wonders."
